As November ends, traditionally, a month for remembering those who have passed, I now, finally, publish, "A Grief Endured". I hope my own account helps anyone who struggles with their loss and their grief. It is, always, okay to not be okay. GC medium.com/@gaf.connolly/…
Even in well established social democratic parties, this is happening ... and people on the Right can mock it all they want but where young people cannot get ahead, cannot own a house, cannot get married & have children ... they will not be appeased by more rainbow centrism
I think people thinking Mamdani is merely a curse of true blue cities and nowhere else are kidding themselves. Poll after poll shows the national Democratic voter base skewing harder and harder liberal since 2015 with no signs of stopping.
Nikki Haley's son is based! W Bush is one of the worst Presidents of the past 100 years along with Wilson, LBJ, Hoover.
He deserves more hate actually. Imagine plunging us trillions in debt and losing thousands of American lives because you’re a liar (Iraq) and stupid enough to think you can bring liberal democracy to Afghanistan of all places. One of the worst presidents in the modern era.

David Frum's publisher Lauren Powell Jobs with Ghislaine Maxwell ... while insight has never been David Frum's strength, this is just bonkers even for him
Problem is too many on the right are beholden to FYGM/STBY NIMBY types, especially retirees, who don't care, since "I'll be dead when it all comes down."

British Forces raise the Union Flag over the Falkland Islands after retaking them from Argentinian Forces (1982)
Just long enough for Zelenskiy and his cronies to escape to a non-extradition country, where they will enjoy the billion$ they stole from the Ukrainian people and all the NATO friends who gave aid, in safety and sunshine...as Ukraine is destroyed by Putin.
Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada has DE FACTO destroyed the independence of Ukraine’s anti-corruption structures. But for how long? kyivpost.com/post/56773
Hopefully there was an independent Inspector-General set up to track what happened to Western contributions to Ukraine? Particularly after what massive frauds and embezzlement happened in Afghanistan
Happening now: The largest protest of wartime Ukraine is underway in central Kyiv over President Zelensky’s push to dismantle the country’s independent anticorruption agencies. Thousands of protesters and more pouring in. Chants of “Shame!” among others. They demand Zelensky veto…
This ancient Maronite church was recently restored by the Hungarian government.
